improved Broadband connectivity by completeing the relevant online survey.
Broadband in South Gloucestershire
Access to the internet is increasingly an essential part of everyday life. South Gloucestershire Council is committed to ensuring that all residents and businesses have access to fast, reliable and affordable broadband, and the social and economic benefits that it can bring.
The Government’s vision is that the UK will have the best superfast broadband network in Europe by 2015.
Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK) funding bid
South Gloucestershire Council is working to access matched funding from the Government to improve broadband coverage in South Gloucestershire.
The private sector broadband market will be providing superfast broadband to around two-thirds of communities over the next few years. However, it is essential that homes and businesses in areas in the remaining third of our communities are not left behind. The aim of the broadband funding is to use public investment to subsidise the provision of infrastructure required for faster broadband in those areas where it will not be provided by the private sector market.
Get involved
With your support, the council aims to encourage commercial suppliers to invest in infrastructure in South Gloucestershire by demonstrating that families, businesses and communities in South Gloucestershire want and need faster broadband.

Energy Group Update
The Energy Group held an Open Day on Saturday, 27 February to update villagers on its proposals. Originally formed as part of the Hawkesbury Parish Vision Plan, it has been examining options to replace the aging oil-fired boiler in the Village Hall with sustainable alternatives. The group is advocating the installation at the Village Hall of a Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) and (15kW, 15m) wind turbine to reduce its Carbon Footprint. During the two sessions, there was a good cross section of frank views and several actions were agreed, such as arranging visits to similar types of installation nearby, which will be arranged shortly We really want to hear from you as we need to understand everyone’s views and level of support (both positive and negative) and to address concerns and questions.Please click for more information.
